# hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - List: linuxppc-dev - 9 messages, 5 authors - Page: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444153/t ## hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - From: Kumar Gala \ - Date: 2008-08-05 13:21:36 - Message: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444153.md ```text I'm trying to get the ppc6xx_defconfig booting on any 8641 (74xx/e600) system. If I remove the 'simple-bus' compatible from the soc node in the .dts it works. Otherwise it hangs at but and looks to be crashed in the serial driver due to accessing memory at 0. I've tried the same .dts (w/'simple-bus') using the mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig and things work. Any one got any ideas? - k ``` ## Re: hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - From: Grant Likely \ - Date: 2008-08-06 13:41:33 - Message: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444229.md ```text On Tue, Aug 05, 2008 at 08:21:31AM -0500, Kumar Gala wrote: > I'm trying to get the ppc6xx_defconfig booting on any 8641 (74xx/e600) > system.

The Xilinx folks hit something similar. ns16550 nodes get matched if the parent claims simple-bus. If extra stuff needs to be done to use that port, then bad things happen. g. ``` ## Re: hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - From: Kumar Gala \ - Date: 2008-08-06 13:47:35 - Message: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444230.md ```text On Aug 6, 2008, at 8:41 AM, Grant Likely wrote: > On Tue, Aug 05, 2008 at 08:21:31AM -0500, Kumar Gala wrote: >> I'm trying to get the ppc6xx_defconfig booting on any 8641 (74xx/e600) >> system.

In my case that isn't the situation. - k ``` ## Re: hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - From: Grant Likely \ - Date: 2008-08-06 13:50:00 - Message: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444231.md ```text On Wed, Aug 06, 2008 at 08:47:29AM -0500, Kumar Gala wrote: > > On Aug 6, 2008, at 8:41 AM, Grant Likely wrote: > >> On Tue, Aug 05, 2008 at 08:21:31AM -0500, Kumar Gala wrote: >>> I'm trying to get the ppc6xx_defconfig booting on any 8641 (74xx/ >>> e600) >>> system.

Yes, they added code to check another property. If the reg-shift or reg-offset properties were present, then it didn't try to use the port ``` ## Re: hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - From: Scott Wood \ - Date: 2008-08-06 17:35:53 - Message: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444249.md ```text On Wed, Aug 06, 2008 at 07:41:28AM -0600, Grant Likely wrote: > On Tue, Aug 05, 2008 at 08:21:31AM -0500, Kumar Gala wrote: > > I'm trying to get the ppc6xx_defconfig booting on any 8641 (74xx/e600) > > system.

If extra stuff needs to be done, it shouldn't claim to be a simple-bus. -Scott ``` ## RE: hang w/ppc6xx\_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible - From: Stephen Neuendorffer \ - Date: 2008-08-06 18:02:11 - Message: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2008/08/9444250.md ```text The problem (in my case) is that the legacy-serial driver doesn't accept all of the 16550 configurations accepted by the regular ns16550 driver. The problem is not related to simple-bus, but only became visible when simple-bus bindings are used because the legacy-serial driver specifically looks for an ns16550 node contained by a simple-bus. Most likely the hpcn_defconfig disables the legacy-serial driver altogether.

Heh, no, not the bus. :-) Extra stuff to use the serial device. g. ```
